Ideally situated between Casino and Tenterfield, Drake's delightful hotel is always a welcoming sight to all
those who travel the Bruxner Highway. A two-hour drive from Byron Bay or one and a half hours from Lismore, the drive is well worthwhile.
Whether you are passing through, or looking for a place to linger, the Drake Hotel will give you many reasons to return:

Just installed, clean, tidy and modern facility. Come have a drink and relax in the bar while your washing problems solve themselves. - Catering.
Planning something special? Maybe a birthday party or an anniversary? Let the Drake Hotel cater for your special occasion. Personal attention to suit the most fastidious hostess.
